Arrangement of door-sill and door-strip



HENRY TRYON, OF STUBEN, PENNSYLVANIA.

ARRANGEMENT OF DOOR-SILL AND DOOR-STRIP.

Specification of Letters Patent No. 17,242, dated May 5, 1857.

To all whom t may concern.'

Be it known that I, HENRY TnYoN, ot Stubein, in the county of Crawford and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Door Sill and Door Strip; and I hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, and

`the letters of reference marked thereon.

A, Figure l, is a door and B the fra-me of the same.

D, is a sill of cast iron, cast like albox When the door is closed the door strip, E,

removes all the snow, ice, and dirt from the sill, D, the ends of the circular flange E, are brought to an edge, so that when the door closes any snow or mud that may collect between the end of the door strip E, and the ldoor jamb H, will pass into the circular ange C. There also may be a groove in the bottom of the door jamb which will prevent the snowA or mud from collecting in the corners of the door casing.

What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States ism The construction of my doorstrip as' shown at C, in connection with the sill, constructed as described, or any other construction substantially the same and which will produce the same result.
